BE4M33SSU	Statistical Machine Learning			Extent of teaching:	2P+2C
Guarantors:	Flach B.	Roles:	PO,PV,V	Language of teaching:	EN
Teachers:	Drchal J., Flach B., Franc V.			Completion:	Z,ZK
Responsible Department:	13133	Credits:	6	Semester:	Z

Anotation:

The aim of statistical machine learning is to develop systems (models and algorithms) able to learn to solve tasks given a set of examples and some prior knowledge about the task. This includes typical tasks in speech and image recognition. The course has the following two main objectives

1.		to present fundamental learning concepts such as risk minimisation, maximum likelihood estimation and Bayesian learning including their theoretical aspects,
2.		to consider important state-of-the-art models for classification and regression and to show how they can be learned by those concepts.

Study targets:

The aim of statistical machine learning is to develop systems (models and algorithms) able to learn to solve tasks given a set of examples and some prior knowledge about the task.

Course outlines:

The course will cover the following topics - Empirical risk minimization, consistency, bounds - Kernel SVMs, RKHS, regression - Semi-supervised learning - Unsupervised learning, EM algorithm, mixture models - Bayesian learning - Deep (convolutional) networks and Boltzmann machines (graphical models) - Supervised learning for deep networks - Hopfield nets and energy minimisation (MAP in MRFs) - Structured output SVMs - Sampling methods, sampling from models - Ensemble learning, random forests

Exercises outline:

Labs will be dedicated to practical implementations of selected methods discussed in the course as well as seminar classes with task-oriented assignments.
